Comments: The Chinese preserved duck is a seasonal food. People will eat this
food every autumn and winter. In the past, the duck was wrapped with red paper
and given out to friends as a gift in the Chinese New Year. There are some clues
to choose a good preserved duck. First, the surface of the duck should be dry.
Besides, the smell indicates the quality of the duck. Put the duck under your
nose. If it has a strong marinated pleasant smell, you are good luck. Normally,
each duck should be steamed for 20 minutes for the best result.
